Teacher education and marginalized communities: using photovoice

Activity: Talk or presentationInvited talkAcademic

Description

In this talk, I will share my experience as a mathematics teacher educator working with marginalized communities in Israel.

I will share my efforts integrating social-ecological issues with mathematical problem-solving while honing my student-teachers voices and their communities.

I will start by emphasizing that context matters and give an introduction to the Bedouin community, which is one of the marginalized communities I have been working with.

Using multiple examples, I will share how the photovoice method enabled the student-teachers to bring their voice forward, allowing them to discuss their communities' socio-ecological issues as part of a college course about mathematical problem-solving, connecting these issues to mathematics.
